Samsora playing is such a beautiful art. U honestly have to respect him because of how he carries his character and his beautiful movement, micro spacing, etc. I'm so happy that he's loyal with peach and even exists lol!!
So glad Samaora placed so well in this tournament. I know there are still a few people sceptical about Peach being a high tier character. I think Samsora singlehandedly proved she's a very capable and threatening high tier character during this tournament. Super fun to watch too.
That's true, but Umeki hasn't done anything of this calibre before. He showed Peach has these crazy infinites, but hasn't done anything with them before. Samsora showed us that Peach is still super good without them.
bowserboy3 Thats not true. Umeki would use peach infinite all the time before it was nerfed. Her infinites now are SUPER hard to pull of, I wouldn't imagine anyone actually mastering them.
Umeki has competed in the US before. Samsora, Kie, LingLing, and SlayerZ are better Peach players; they've made it farther with a similar sample size, and have beaten more people. There's another Peach player in Japan too that's better.
Eletro's Bladeworks Yes in skill. But I'm talking about results. Objectively, those 5 are all better than Umeki. Skill doesn't mean anything unless you have the results to back it.
I'm so proud of Samsora for getting that far. I wish both of these players could've gone even further, but I'm glad they both made it to top 8. To be honest, I was not really confident that Samsora would win this when I saw that he had to face Void, but he proved me wrong and I'm happy for him. Also, 4:37 It was like Void turned to Samsora and was like "Oh so it's like that now?" lol
Peach can infinite shiek out of a down throw (15%-25% range) even after the patch. In fact, she can infinite every top tier but diddy kong STILL after the hitbox nerf. There's also a video online of Umeki infiniting void three times in the same match :,)))))))
BTW peach's first hit of u-air doesn't have any upward knockback so if you get by it in the air you hurtle downwards in hitstun. That's why he fell, as he hit Samsora with F-Air he got clipped by U-Air. I don't think he could have recovered even if he didn't mess up.
Samsora just kept Void off stage for half of the game four. So good and edge guarding and keeping stage control. Void was too eager to start an offense though. When he finally got back on stage Void just went for dash grab and Samsora sent him right back off stage. Void could have benefitted from just a touch more patience with getting back onto the stage. Good stuff to Samsora though, beating Void is no easy task. Seriously, who edge guards a Shiek that well?
?????? Seriously hope you're joking. A player of VoiD's calibre doesn't lose momentum off of one SD from the very first game for the rest of a Bo5 set in top eight.
